Boruto just unveiled the power level of a new big bad who is impossibly busted...obvious spoilers
- Thread starter ItWasMeantToBe19
- Start date
These shows should be set two generations down the line, Avatar did it correctly. Make the heroes of your first show OLD, maybe they can still power up once but they're clearly on the downside. Maybe you have a big bad that is defeated by the old hero but his body can't take it and he dies. This also serves to move the world forward and you can explore how the events of the first show are felt when no one TRULY remembers what happened
Exactly and some storm guy that swept through Loguetown I think
I was waiting for this. It seems like Naruto's idea of world building is making everyone over the age of 21 incredibly weak, stupid or all of the above.
I now eagerly await for the power of friendship to save the day or better yet the ultimate talk no justu to be unleashed on these dark souls to show them light.

People complain that Naruto and Sasuke are gods who can't be defeated (they aren't) but then when someone with the power of a god defeats them, they're upset.
While I'm sure it'll happen because it's Shonen, I think the series is set up in a way where they don't need Boruto become a deity level character like his dad and Sasuke.
Since the beginning of the series Boruto has always felt that he has to be the best and be the one to beat his dad - he even went so far as to cheat during the chuunin exams even though he's a genius. But after that arc ended his character kinda changed from a kid trying to surpass his God father, to a kid understanding he doesn't need to and just wants to improve on his own terms. A story about someone realizing that they'll never be able to escape from the shadow of their father/uncle and all that they've done, and still managing to become a legend on their own would be great.
For this current villain, Naruto is sealed but he specifically wanted Sasuke to escape so that he could come up with a plan to win. Naruto ain't going nowhere (for the time being) and Boruto will definitely have a hand in the battle as well, but I still think it's going to mostly be a round 2 fight for Naruto+Sasuke vs Jigen.
Buuuuuut it's prolly going to be Boruto with eye hacks surpassing everyone.

I just don't class Boruto as canon tbh seeing as it doesn't make sense for Boruto to be able to get anywhere near Narutos power.
Naruto truly lived up to its dragon ball Z inspirations now......
A) it is 100% demonstrably canon (the manga anyways) There is no arguing this.
B) We have no idea what Boruto's power level is going to be.
Karma. Boruto literally has the same kind of power the guy who just beat Naruto has.
Some people seem to be really against the idea of anyone standing up to Naruto and Sasuke but a lot of popular Shonen do this type of thing. Frieza was the most powerful thing ever and Super Saiyan was the peak of power until a few robots made a joke out of it. Everyone loves Super Saiyan God and the Gods of Destruction even though they were retconned into the story for Super. I don't get what the issue with Naruto and Sasuke being defeated by a new villain is when it's been firmly established that someone stronger than them would be coming for years at this point.
Are you sure you actually watched/read the damn thing ???
Meruem defeated the strongest hunter Netero with minimal damage. He only got defeated due to the nuclear bomb(which technically failed to kill him with the initial impact). If there is one thing about Meruem that definitely isn't overhyped its his power lol. He would easily destroy everyone else especially in Post Rose mode where he is pretty much unbeatable.

Glad to see y'all calling out that awful HxH take.
On topic, this is the problem with always having to improve on power levels. Things get stupid real quick.

A bomb triggered by netero, end result is the same he lost. All that power and did nothing but sit in the same area waiting for an event that went nowhere. It just highlights how poor the arc was.
At this point maybe I should start a new thread, going kinda off topic here.
I kinda stopped after I witnessed the Red Beast.
Have they introduced eyes that are more powerful than the Rinnegan and Sharingan yet?

Stay away from One Piece spoilers by any means, if you care about that sort of thing and managed to avoid them so far. Seriously, dont even try to Google anything One Piece related lol. There are a lot of characters that pop up seemingly randomly but wind up being so important you will legit do a double take.
And make sure to read the manga cover chapters if you havent already.
Yeah, and his "asspull" is that he absorbs all chakra (tying into the theme of the series, which is basically "No Country for Old Ninjas").
Boruto will win by using jutsu together with karma. Thus demonstrating that it's possible to update traditional things without totally disregarding them. Put a bow on it.
Aliens in Naruto?
Well I haven't watched in years but just goggling the Otsutsuki and reading about them. Mate... wtf
Maybe they won't level him up further than those two, but he had to get to their level so they can have a three man team brawl... Maybe
Oo even more intriguing and will do, yeah I've somehow managed to actually remain unspoiled on it somehow I think..
thanks for the heads up tho
Boruto isn't anywhere close to Naruto power-wise.
By not writing.
looks more like a jojo stand to me. Just give him a weird skin color
I don't understand how anyone watching shonen anime can take power levels (whether explicitly given a numerical value or not) seriously. They specifically exist to be ever inflating. There is absolutely no permanence, no matter how high you go.
This but with spiky hair.

Boruto had a lot of potential, but the anime with so much filler has become atrocious, the manga style is awful too.
